8.30 Ending a Family Violence Waiver
ISSUE DATE: 09/2020
The decision to continue or end a family violence waiver should always be on a case-by-case basis.
· The participant’s and the children’s safety should be the deciding factor.· The family violence specialist should always be part of the decision-making process about whether to continue or end a family violence waiver.
Only end the Family Violence Waiver if BOTH these criteria are met:
· The participant either:· Reports there is no longer a safety issue.· Continues to be out of compliance.· The family violence specialist agrees.
End or renew the family violence waiver by sending a status update to the eligibility worker.
